Awesome. Although I've just realised how annoying the frequently called list is! I call someone once and apparently that means I call them frequently. Wish there was a way to remove it
[HTC Desire S] Kolo39:
Can it be that none of the zips has the right MD5 checksum?

Edit: But the MD5 checksums from both files match!!

the right one is: 2da3ecac6fe39f50e1aa0a9313236bd2

there is a typo
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
Nice update. And I see now that the icons for notification toggles are in place.:) Looking much better now
[HTC Desire S] jimmygoska:
Just tried and everything was fine. Until I quit the app and tried again. Now it's freaking out. When i remove 1 finger after pressing with 2 fingers the first ring disappears and keeps flashing as i drag my finger around.

Will reboot and see what happens.

----------- edit ------------

No improvements after reboot.
[HTC Desire S] chivas112:
Awesome ROM !! Thanks very much :-D

Did anyone else notice that there's a bug witch "freezes" Android's clock (in the taskbar). It was on beta5 and 6 I think and currently I'm checking the phone if it happens again on beta7.

Another bug I'd like to mention concerns Android's stock musicplayer: Sometimes (when listening to an album or playlist) it does not jump from one track (at the end) to another, so you have to do it manually.

So far.. I'm using this ICS-ROM as daily rom and just flashed beta7 :-) I'm looking forward to test it.
[HTC Desire S] cjward23:
Sorry its me. Trying to everything via tapatalk and AndChat sucks.

AndChat really needs to have a Copy function.
[HTC Desire S] Airpil:
Is the Phone Encription is works or not in betta7 ?
[HTC Desire S] Kolo39:
no problem ;)

but I have a new problem

Now my Desire S isnt starting! So I restore my Backup.

I think the problem is that I didnt wipe all - only cache/dalvik from Beta 3 to 7
[HTC Desire S] rzabcio:
Thanks for replication.

This is not critical bug, but a kind of serious.
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
Small bug. You've added ES File Explorer to the ROM. That's great, I was using it before also. When going to ES settings and select "run as root", even if it gets root permissions via SU, after checking it says "Sorry, test failed. This feature cannot run on your device". It was working on previous beta and with the ES installed from market. Dunno what has changed.
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
Ya i know by default it doesn't...

On the righ handside at bottom corner there is repeat all songs...(symbol)...easy to overlook...click on it...

Also if you dont want shuffle...similar symbol on bottom left...so tracks played sequentially :)
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
OK...Solved by removing "com.estrong.android.pop.apk" from /system/app and reinstalling ES File Explorer from Market. Now it's ok and "run as root" and "mount system writable" both works
[HTC Desire S] onlyankush_s:
Use AndroIRC. Much much better, and yaah it has copy paste functionality.. ;)
[HTC Desire S] mexicorn:
Yep, I've noticed it in one of the previous beta releases while playing Real Racing 2. Haven't tried ever since.
[HTC Desire S] fernat:
thanks for your great work on the rom!

Bug(?):

When I'm downloading a file and my SD-card is full, the download doesn't stop. It just stops and starts again - IMHO it would be great if the download stops and you see a message in the statusbar that the download stoped because there isn't enough space on your sd-card or something like that. And mobile data should be turned off.
[HTC Desire S] Ovigo:
Yeeh, Icons :D. One note on this though: Icons and text is not properly aligned: text disappears behind toggle. Text or icon only is perfect though:)

Got a fc of 4control while playing with clock settings. Not reproducable though.

Also: wouldn't it be nice to be able to change the color of the statusbar icons as well as the clock? Because a red clock with blue icons doesn't match :P
[HTC Desire S] cjward23:
I tried it, I love the minimal UI of andchat I find it so hard to switch
[HTC Desire S] BeDesireS:
Great work guys! The ROM is amazing! :-)

But I had a strange bug after flashing new beta. I tried the new restart function in power menu, but it only boots normal, no hotboot.

And after this I had no media in music and gallery app. It's like mediscanner is completely disabled.

After a normal reboot everything is fine again.

Nevermind, you guys are doing a brilliant job! :-)
[HTC Desire S] enomis27:
Power Menu doesn't show power saver...had a full wipe before flashing beta 7...anyway KEEP IT UP guys...yours is an AWESOME work!!!
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
For me it does appear. Going from beta 4 to 7 no wipe just cache and dalvik
[HTC Desire S] meinnameisthase:

perfomance settings:

max frequency is 1024 Mhz by default, but this value does not exist for available scaling frequencies .....
[HTC Desire S] Kolo39:
For me it also appears

I made a clean install (from Beta 3)
[HTC Desire S] enomis27:
For me it's still present the "airplane mode toggle" issue
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
Ue the "airplane mode switch" from Power Menu instead. I don't think anyone is switching to/from Airplane Mode so often that it requires a switch in notification anyways. Long press Power then select Airplane Mode from menu
[HTC Desire S] Rul:
Great! Battery life is back to being awesome!
[HTC Desire S] enomis27:

I installed the latest version however when using Skype and Voice recording, it crackels really badly and goes fuzzy. Going back to a different ROM solved this issue. Maybe something to look into?
[HTC Desire S] onlyankush_s:

And I guess screen is eating my battery.

when lock screen,hold Power button also pop up Power menu

[reproduce step]

1.lock screen

2.press Power button,light screen(do not unlock screen)

3.hold Power button,phone will pop Power menu.

see attach
[HTC Desire S] bongo1:
Can not reproduce that here.
[HTC Desire S] docertabum:

[HTC Desire S] jimmygoska:
I get this as well but I like being able to switch to airplane mode/silent/vibrate/power saver mode or take a screenshot from the lockscreen.
[HTC Desire S] rzabcio:
Yes, but statusbar is working too. And this is not too good. Or should be optionally.
[HTC Desire S] BeDesireS:
Nobody else having problems with the mediascan in Beta 7?

After a reboot, i have no media present in Music and Galery app, till

I try to reboot several times and then sometime it works again.

But then after a new reboot... it`s back again and no media is present.

Not every reboot.. just sometimes. It`s really strange. :confused:

I tried many times and does a full wipe before flashing twice!?

I am back now to Beta 6, since there was everything okay and wait for new update!
[HTC Desire S] docertabum:
interesting, my status bar's not working before I unlock the phone (I have a pattern lock)
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
Status bar and access to notifications from lock screen is only available if you have the standard "ring" lock screen, that is with no security. If you set a PIN, password or pattern unlock screen you cannot access it anymore even if popping up the power menu. And that's ok, this is how it should work. Why are you concerned about accessing statusbar in lock screen since you have no security set anyways?

Could anyone tell me why Mic quality is seriously degraded with this rom?
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
Because the Jackson 5 does not exist anymore.
[HTC Desire S] mmarks:
I'm having this problem too. Got in my car this morning (after upgrading to Beta7 last night) and no music. Got to the office and it appeared.

I have installed a free media scanner from Market to see if manually starting the scan will be a workaround until resolved.
[HTC Desire S] ben ifin:
Just went from BETA 3 straight to BETA 7.

All I did was wipe the Cache, Dalvik and Battery Stats.

Installed perfectly - kept all my exisitng stuff and settings - silky smooth and fast.

Only issue - USB Cable Tethering still not working <= PLEASE, can we get this.

All the best,

Ben
[HTC Desire S] mmarks:
Made me laugh!!!!!
[HTC Desire S] rzabcio:
You are joking, right? :)

You claim that to lock the screen I have to use "secure screen"? As the name states "secure screen" is to SECURE phone. It should not be needed to LOCK it. What's the point of using LOCKscreen if it do not LOCK anything? :)

Come on - this is an absurd! I cannot agree with it. :)
[HTC Desire S] cined:
If it's just me having microphone quality issues but it works completely fine on another ROM, what would this mean?
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
No, I'm not joking. The idea of not having access to notification while in lock screen is for privacy only. And you have NO privacy if you just lock the screen without security. Notification can be accessed in lock screen even without the need of power menu. Just drag the status bar down while you're on lock screen and it'll work.

The lock screen without security is for not accidentally press some icon if you keep the phone in your pocket and the power button is pressed by mistake...then the screen will lit and if there's no lock screen you can accidentally touch some icons and launch something (even so it's hard since it's capacitive screen not resistive). So the lock screen DOES lock something...everything in fact but you can drag the status bar and access notifications more conveniently. The way you say it, we shouldn't have either the 3 icons (or more) on lock screen for messaging, calls (or others on sense ROMs) cause they're not locked, right?

So there's no reason I could think of, that you should not have access to notifications while in lock screen besides privacy aspect. More than that, this feature (to access notifications from lock screen) was requested by many since Gingerbread...Google took note of it and has implemented it in ICS. It's standard in ICS and this is the way it should work. In case you don't like this feature, you can either do not use ICS or see if one of the devs will make a mod to disable status bar notification access. Till then though, you'll have to live with it, no other option

Later edit: You can check the below links for reviews on ICS and see that this feature was long awaited and welcomed. Even Apple plan to include access to notifications from lock screen on next IOS version

http://www.transformerforums.com/fo...h/12944-android-4-0-ics-features-changes.html

http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/whats-new-in-android-4-0-ice-cream-sandwich-feature-review/

So regardless of your like/dislike of this feature, it's integrated in ICS and this debate is useless
[HTC Desire S] devilloki:
i update from beta6,of course wipe cache and davlik

Beta 7 is amazingly smooth and fast best untilled now. Even the browser seems faster and I get the highest scores on benchmarks thus far. Thanks devs!

caused by mediascan everybody was talking about.. and now this!?

Sice beta 6 i noticed a quite heavy battery drain, which has been confirmed in beta 7 today. on my way to work i was just listening to some music and surfing the internet (no games). it's about 1/4 of the battery life i usually have in cm7. i will recalibrate the bat when it's fully charged later.

[HTC Desire S] rzabcio:
Really thanks for clarification. I admit I have missed that when reading about changes in ICS.

But still... I am still thinking it is an absurd change. And I think that "not-locking-anything" lockscreen should be an option.
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
i'm not russian but just thought i'd say that one of them is a normal restart and the other is a quick restart. Not sure which way around it is. I was gonna mention that it should be more clear as to which one is the hot boot and which one is the normal restart.

I'm noticing that the YouTube app FC's on certain videos. Not all. Maybe it has something to do with the encoding of the particular video?

I'm also having some issues with the keyboard. At times, certain letters will seemingly get stuck. For example; I want to write "Hello". If it occurs, what will happen is I'll go "H - E - " and then the L will refuse to press in. I can press "K" just fine and then when I do, L becomes functional again.

Hope that makes sense... and I hope I'm not the only one experiencing this lol.

I love the addition of the new video player (ES) and the file browser.

Gotta point out too that I found the status bar pull down on the lock screen confusing. I was about to flag it as a bug before I read the post clearing it up.

Makes some sense, I guess. Just counter-intuitive to what we've come to expect.
[HTC Desire S] CoolButcher:
For me Battery drain got better with Beta 7.

I get through my day again.
[HTC Desire S] raggaboi:
You're not alone mate.

I've experienced this non consistent bug in every ISC ROM I have ever used

I just assumed it was something to do with the touch screen/display drivers. (Maybe thet aren't official, maybe it's a hack that causes it?? :/

Anyway it wasn't really anything that bothered me enough to warrant a post about it lol :P
[HTC Desire S] rasher67:
Rom just gets better and better beta-6 was not great on battery due to high CPU on media server but 7 seems fine. Call quality is good wifi signal is good.

Camera works well too. My wife bought me it for Xmas lovely canon :-)

[HTC Desire S] chubby65:
It's gonna look a bit daft strapped to the back of your desire s tho lol

Not neccesarily the media server though for the battery usage. It was nowhere to be seen in my battery stats, but still my battery went up way quicker than with beta 7 now :)

Well if it's bad for me overall (With regards to Mic quality) what could it actually be? Bear in mind it works perfect on every other ROM I've tried. It's strange because the phone hardware is exactly the same obviously so I don't really see where it could be going wrong. :confused:
[HTC Desire S] Ovigo:
Oh, sorry, I wasn't denying that the media scanner/server was giving troubles, just mentioning that it was not the only one as I had issues with batterylife as well, but not with the mediascanner. With me, Facebook more seems to be the trouble giver. Even on beta7 it seems responsible for 11% of my battery usage, but while I do use the app, it shouldn't be that high, as it never was with earlier ICS-builds or gingerbread for me. Happy to see all improvements though:)
[HTC Desire S] bongo1:
